Oh yeah, I also proposed to Sybil and she accepted. I have no doubt that she loves me. She goes out of her way at times just to make me happy. Like when I was diagnosed with bpd, she went out and bought a book on it so that she could learn more about it.I spent a long time looking for that perfect someone when all along she was right in front of me. Its all still a long ways off, we don't plan to get married until a year or so. In the meantime, just going to take it one day at a time. I haven't told my family yet. We first met nearly a year ago and dated off and on during that time. In all that time, she never met my family, for reasons I'm not sure of. It sucks because they met married girl on 4th of July, so I can't just out of the blue say"oh yeah, this is sybil, we are engaged." I'll wait a few weeks and then bring her around and go from there.
I did sit down and talk with my daughter last night though and told her. She is my number one priority. Honestly if she told me daddy, i don't want you to get married or I don't like her, then I wouldn't do it. I just explained that she(my daughter) is the most important girl in my life and always will be. She said she was okay with it and I tried to reinforce the point that things won't change by taking her to six flags today..just the two of us. I think thats the important thing..to not get caught up in everything that I don't make time for her. With all of her own mental issues, that is the last thing she needs. Sybil has a son of her own and I've decided than I'm not going to all of a sudden rush into doing stuff together all of the time. I figure we can do it gradually.
So yeah..thats what I've been up to-
